Abstract
To find the industrial differences in work environment among women, two contrasting companies, A manufacturing company and B service companies were compared. In B service company, it was found that respondents reported higher Career Formation Support, lower Discriminative Environment, higher Career Possibility, and lower Job Dissatisfaction than those in A manufacturing company. However, Career Motivation remained the same. These results suggested that in A manufacturing company the rigid and less equitable work environment reduced women's Career Consciousness. Particularly, it was found that the company differences were noticeable in Career Formation Support which plays an impotance role in enhancing women's career development in the industrial organization.
